Beautiful vintage lambs Mike.

Thank you. I will share more information about them when I can figure how to create my own post. I dont want to offend anyone by posting on their post.

A lamb in clover is a happy lamb indeed!

I have to ask, is there a purpose behind all that clover? The knife, of course, is admirable.

We sow it for grazing, hay, weed control or nitrogen building. In this instance it’s for sheep grazing

Another day, another couple of pics of Cracker Jack, the lambsfoot I'm carrying all week.
Some of you may not know why I call my Ashley's Choice lambsfoot Cracker Jack.
1) It's smaller than my other lambsfoots, almost as small as a Case peanut.
2) The stag on the pile side has what is often called popcorn.
A special treat when I was a lad was Cracker Jack, a mixture of (carmel-coated) popcorn and (very few) peanuts.
"Crackerjack" is also a term sometimes used to refer to something of high quality, such as a crackerjack sports car or a crackerjack eye surgeon.
So my high quality Ashley's Choice Lambsfoot with popcorn stag and a size somewhat similar to a Peanut certainly deserved the name Cracker Jack! Here's a couple of photos of Cracker Jack with a box of the old-fashioned treat.

Wow, that is nice . Good one Barry.

Thanks Cudgee! I like ironwood!

I'm intrigued by the size. At your leisure can you post it with one of your other Lambsfoot's for a size comparison.

You need a sanity test if you don't.

 

[gunstockjack]

I have two of these; probably should trade one.

Nice pics Gary !

I'm intrigued by the size. At your leisure can you post it with one of your other Lambsfoot's for a size comparison.

Leon, I just measured 3 of my lambsfoots and I'm obviously thinking of Cracker Jack as being smaller than he really is.
(My daughter thinks of me this way; she often buys me t-shirts that are "medium" when I typically get "large" for myself.)
I measured Cracker Jack, my Ashley's Choice stag lambsfoot at 3 1/4" closed (which is 3/8" longer than a Case Peanut).
Union Jack, an A. Wright & Son rosewood lambsfoot purchased by my wife and daughter in York, England, is 3 1/2" closed.
LamBarJack, my rosewood Hartshead Barlow, is 3 11/16" closed.

So Cracker Jack is smaller than all my other lambsfoots, but not nearly as small as a Peanut in actual length.
I'll try to get a comparison shot "processed" and posted tomorrow. Here's the best I can do with an old "flock foto"; not sure how much size info you can get from it.
